We will need to know the folowing (from the Training Powerpoint):
n 2011 focus is food borne illnesses n Content- n Definitions of basic epidemiologic terms ( WE WILL USE THE NOTES FROM LAST YEAR FOR THIS) n Categories of disease causing agents (IN VOCABULARY) n Modes of disease spread (IN VOCABULARY) n Triads of analysis (e.g., person/place/time & agent/host/environment) (LOOK UNDER THE TEN STEPS DOCUMENT) n Basis for taking action to control and prevent the spread of disease (LOOK UNDER THE TEN STEPS HANDOUT) n Process Skills – hypothesis, observations, inferences, predictions, variable analysis, data analysis, calculations, and conclusions
This are the notes (or one side of them) that we brought to IA 2009/2010:
The test included "types of studies" which we didn't know. Also, it had a lot about looking at tables.
Things to Study:
1. Case Definitions
2. How charecteristics of the victims may effect the probability for spread
3. How location may effect the probability of spread
4. How the time may effect the probaility of spread
5. Relative Risk= [a/ (a+b)] / [c/ (c+d)] = 80% / 20% = 4
a = # of case patients exposed b = # if control exposed
c = # of case patients unexposed d = # of control unexposed
6. Biomodal?
7. MEMORIZATION {it is always helpful}
[revised 2/13/10]
8. types of studies
9. graphing and table interpretation
10. the ten steps in detail (we put this on the notes, and there were some good formulas and vocab terms in there)
